In most arena battlers, your account level (often represented as a King Tower or Base Headquarters) dictates the health and damage of your main defensive structures.

Therefore, understanding exactly how to efficiently generate account experience points (XP) is vital for long-term survival on the ladder.

Leveling Up the Deck

However, the ratio of gold spent to experience gained changes drastically depending on the level of the upgrade.

Upgrading a card from level one to level two costs virtually nothing and provides a very high amount of XP per gold coin spent.

• Your deck is your sword.
• The cost is microscopic, but the XP bump is significant.
• You will run out of gold and cripple your main deck.

XP Through Generosity

The second most consistent way to generate base experience is by actively donating cards to your clanmates.

You are essentially converting cards you will never use into base hitpoints and currency.

The Impact of King Levels

In close matches, the winner is often decided by a tower surviving with less than fifty hitpoints.

Never neglect your base progression; it is the silent protector that wins games.
